Qualitative research tradition and rationale

Cathy Beresford utilizes a case study approach as her primary qualitative research tradition. Primarily, she develops an in-depth analysis of one case into multiple studies. The goal of her investigation is to determine the most effective nursing care practices for patients with type 2 diabetes. To facilitate the data collection process, she samples 11 people with type 2 diabetes to provide the required information (Beresford, 2011). The results generated in this process are used in the data analysis phase. Documentation of the research is the final procedure in this process. The approach used qualifies to be a case study ...

Introduction

When conducting studies, researchers can adopt a qualitative approach, quantitative approach, or a mixture of the two. Qualitative research method simply encompasses approaches used to gather and analyze data that is non-numerical in nature (Östlund et al., 2011, p. 370). A quantitative method, on the other hand, encompasses approaches for gathering and analyzing numerical data. A mixed method involves using approaches for gathering and analyzing numerical and non-numerical data in the same study (Östlund et al., 2011, p. 370). This paper presents an analysis of the three research methods mentioned above.

INTRODUCTION

Inflation has been described by economics in various ways. A simple description of this condition is a reduction in the value of money of a country. An underlying cause of this is imbalance between the quantity of goods and services and the volume of money in circulation in an economy. Increased volume of money in circulation with respect to the goods in the economy causes inflation.
Hyperinflation is considered an extreme case of inflation. Many economists only regard it hyperinflation when the rate of inflation is at least 50% per month or 1000% per annum. Most hyperinflations are caused by ...

Background

The inclusion of learners with special needs is gradually becoming a major concern to various governments (Holt, 2004). With the enactment of the Disability Discrimination act of 1992 and changes in community perceptions towards individuals with disability in Australia, mainstream primary educational institutions have had to prioritize children with disabilities’ inclusion (Forbes, 2007). Holt (2004) gives a social model definition of disability as the disadvantage or restriction of activity resulting from contemporary social organization which takes either little or no account of individuals with physical impairments thereby excluding them from mainstream social activities. Generally, children are considered learning disabled if they ...

The first step in prioritizing healthcare resources is to estimate the burden of disease. High-income countries have reliable systems to assess the causes of death in the population; however, mid- and low-income countries do not have such systems in place, and mortality rates from a specific disease have to be extrapolated from incomplete data. Several studies have approached the problem of estimating the burden of disease by using a variety of methods to determine which diseases are responsible for the most deaths, which countries are carrying the highest burden of disease and death, and which populations are at the highest risk ...
